Reform Party USA

The Reform Party of the United States of America, often shortened to Reform Party USA or the Reform Party, is a conservative and populist political party in the United States, founded in 1995 by Ross Perot. The party claimed that it could end corruption in the government and focus on the major problems faced by the country; Perot had won 18.9% of the popular vote during the 1992 election as an alternative to the US Republican Party and the US Democratic Party. In 1998, the party won a victory when its candidate Jesse Ventura was elected Governor of Minnesota, and Donald Trump, Pat Buchanan, Ralph Nader, and David Duke were also members of the party at some point in their political careers. Since 2000, the party has never won over 1% of the vote.
